Some men are renowned in history on account of the extraordinary powers and capacities which they exhibited in the course of their career, or the intrinsic greatness of the deeds which they performed.

어떤 사람들은 그들의 경력 과정에서 보여준 비범한 능력과 재능, 또는 그들이 행한 행위의 본질적인 위대함 때문에 역사에 이름을 남겼습니다.

Others, without having really achieved any thing in itself very great or wonderful, have become widely known to mankind by reason of the vast consequences which, in the subsequent course of events, resulted from their doings.

어떤 이들은 그 자체로는 아주 위대하거나 놀라운 일을 실제로 이루지 못했음에도 불구하고, 그들의 행위로 인해 뒤이은 사건의 결과로 엄청난 영향력이 생겨나 인류에게 널리 알려지게 되었습니다.

Men of this latter class are conspicuous rather than great.

후자의 부류에 속하는 사람들은 위대하기보다는 눈에 띄는 존재입니다.

From among thousands of other men equally exalted in character with themselves, they are brought out prominently to the notice of mankind only in consequence of the strong light reflected, by great events subsequently occurring, back upon the position where they happened to stand.

그들처럼 성품이 훌륭한 수천 명의 다른 사람들 중에서 그들이 두드러지게 나타난 것은 후에 일어난 큰 사건들이 그들이 서 있던 위치에 강한 빛을 비추었기 때문입니다.

The celebrity of Romulus seems to be of this latter kind.

로물루스의 명성은 후자의 종류인 것 같습니다.

He founded a city.

그는 도시를 세웠다.

A thousand other men have founded cities; and in doing their work have evinced perhaps as much courage, sagacity, and mental power as Romulus displayed.

천 명의 다른 사람들이 도시를 건설했고, 그들은 일을 하면서 로물루스가 보여준 것만큼이나 용기, 지혜, 정신력을 보여주었습니다.

The city of Romulus, however, became in the end the queen and mistress of the world.

그러나 결국 로물루스의 도시는 세상의 여왕이자 여주인이 되었습니다.
